All Low Carb candy has the low sugar alcohol. Thus, you are not exactly having
"sugar sugar " as in the craving kind, but still diabetics are advised not to
have the low carb stuff for the reason of having trace amounts of sugar. The
diabetics are advised to have no sugar...
Unfortunately, low carb, light &/ or no fat = HIGH CALORIES !!
Also, some of the substitutes cause more cravings then the real stuff.
I tend to stay away if the substitutes cause me to crave in excess, so... I'd
rather do w/o.

they tasted so good. I thought, I can eat these by the handfuls. It's a good
thing I saw the label of Calories...one candy has 25 calories....I thought it
would be no cals or extremely low.
Then I went to the ingredients : Malititol syrup,Heavy cream, milk , butter etc
Later they state small amounts of sugar is in the milk.
My question is this should they call this NO SUGAR...They even said, it had
scant amt of sugar & couldn't that syrup be sugar too? With the cream & milk
,why doesn't it have any protein?
Then they say no carbs..there's never carbs in candy only a sweetener such as
sugar.
Then it says count zero grams for carbs , as sugar alcohols have minimal effect
on blood sugar. They must call Malititol Syrup this sugar alcohol. Any one
know what this syrup is?
Then on the bottom of the ingredients...it says , MADE ON EQUIPMENT THAT ALSO
PROCESSES PEANUTS , NUTS & EGGS...Why do they need to list this?
The candy is so good, so you can understand my disappointment to find the 25
cal each can add up fast!!! I can't eat them by the hand fulls anymore.
I've never have had a label that has given me more fun & thought......Maryb
